Anyone else gets this message?

 

Edit: I'm on a Windows 10 PC.

Nope. Gem purchasing is working fine.

You aren't using the Mac client, are you? Gem purchases have been disabled for the Mac client.

Delete the Local.dat? Repair the client?

Well, I'm not going to delete Local.dat. LOL.

Why? It's recommended by Support as a solution to many problems.

It's not like deleting the GW2.dat file.

It is just that my settings are heavily customized and I have 3 accounts. So, the Local.dat file is kinda huge. I guess I would take a copy and do it.

Local.dat only stores your "local" / hardware-related settings - graphics, sound and login; everything else is stored by the server. It also contains several caches, which can cause it to bloat over time - it should be around 20 to 50 MB.

 

The cache related to the BLTC however is gw2cache found under the %temp% folder, but deleting Local.dat will also reset this one.

 

If it's still a problem, try a VPN - the store changes based on your location.

As Healix mentioned, nothing will happen to your keybinds and the like: https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Local.dat

 

So, try all these and see if it helps:

 

* Delete the GW2 temp folders (see ["How do I clear my game cache?"](https://help.guildwars2.com/hc/en-us/articles/201863008-Repairing-the-Game-Client))

* Delete the [Local.dat](https://wiki.guildwars2.com/wiki/Local.dat)

* [Repair the game client](https://help.guildwars2.com/hc/en-us/articles/201863008-Repairing-the-Game-Client)
